Financial Literacy 101
Personal financial literacy is the ability to read about, analyse, manage, and communicate the personal financial conditions that affect your material well-being. It includes the ability to make financial choices, discuss money and financial issues, plan for the future, and respond competently to life events that affect everyday financial decisions, including events in the general economy.
Intro to Book Keeping
Book-keeping is the activity of keeping accurate records of all movements of money or of things with value that take place in a particular business or organisation. The only qualities a would-be book-keeper needs are some common sense, a logical mind, the ability to write neatly and the ability to do simple arithmetic accurately – and nowadays most arithmetic is done on a calculator!
All businesses use the same system of book-keeping which has its own built-in self checking methods to make sure that it is done accurately. Once you have learnt the system, you are just as able to keep the books of a large multi-million pound corporation as you are able to keep the books of a small one-man business – the only difference is the amount of work involved.
Intro to Business Writing
As the business environment grows in its complexity, the importance of skillful communication becomes essential in the pursuit of institutional goals. In addition to the need to develop adequate statistical skills, you will find it necessary to effectively communicate to others the results of your statistical studies. It is of little use to formulate solutions to business problems without transmitting this information to others involved in the problem-solving process. The importance of effectively communicating the results of your statistical study cannot be overemphasized.
